Description
Mazandaran Cement Type 2
A smart choice for durable and resilient projects in humid and semi-aggressive climates
Mazandaran Cement Type 2 is a strategic, engineered product designed to meet the specific needs of construction and civil projects, particularly in the northern regions of Iran. Positioned between Type 1 (ordinary) and Type 5 (sulfate-resistant) cement, this Type 2 cement offers versatile performance across a wide range of construction applications.
Technical and Performance Features of Mazandaran Type 2 Cement
🔹 Suitable strength classes for various project needs
This cement is produced in strength classes 325, 425, and 525, providing adequate compressive strength at different concrete ages, including 28 days. This makes it ideal for concrete structures requiring long-term durability and high load-bearing capacity.
🔹 Lower heat of hydration
Unlike Type 1 cement, Type 2 generates less heat during setting and hardening. This property is highly effective for mass concrete applications such as dams, large retaining walls, deep foundations, and projects where controlling cracking is critical.
🔹 Relative resistance against aggressive ions
This cement offers higher resistance to sulfate attack and other chemical compounds found in soil and groundwater compared to Type 1. Therefore, it is a better choice for areas with moderately sulfated soils or waters of medium salinity.
🔹 High performance in humid environments
The special formulation of Mazandaran Type 2 cement ensures stable, predictable, and durable performance in humid or variable climates, such as northern provinces of Iran.
Primary Applications
This cement is suitable for projects with the following conditions:
✅ Moderate resistance to sulfates
✅ Mass concrete applications
✅ Humid environments or semi-aggressive groundwater
✅ Urban, building, and road construction projects
✅ Extensive foundations, retaining walls, and bridges
✅ Water and wastewater storage tanks
✅ Deep foundations and underground tunnels
Advantages of Mazandaran Type 2 Cement Compared to Other Types
Feature | Type 1 | Type 2 | Type 5 |
---|---|---|---|
Compressive Strength | Medium | Medium to High | Medium |
Sulfate Resistance | Low | Moderate | Very High |
Heat of Hydration | High | Lower | Low |
Price | Standard | Reasonable | High |
Use in Humid Areas | Limited | Suitable | Suitable |
Produced under Iranian National Standards
Mazandaran Cement is manufactured under strict supervision according to the Iranian National Standard ISIRI 389. Quality control during production, grinding, and packaging ensures that this cement is among the highest quality products in northern Iran.
Why Choose Mazandaran Cement?
If you are looking for a cement that balances durability, workability, chemical resistance, and reasonable price, Mazandaran Type 2 Cement is a golden choice. Using it in large-scale projects or humid environments helps reduce thermal cracking, extend the structure’s lifespan, and lower long-term maintenance costs.
